Smith and the Editor.

Upon a certain occasion, as the editor Of
The Weekly Jabwock sat in his sanctum, a
young man by the name Of John Smith
rushed up stairs and demanded that his honor
be cleared of vivid stain. The Jabwock
had announced that some one by the name Of
John Smith had been sent up for thirty days
This John Smith wanted it known that he
wasn't the John Smith, or he would bring a
great, big, overgrown libel suit.
"Certainly-with pleasure" replied the
editor of the Jabwock. And he wrote that
the John Smith, of Pumpkin Pie avenue was
not the John Smith who pounded his aged
mother, nor the Smith who stole harness,
nor the Smith arrested for bigamy, nor the
Smith who had prize fight, nor the Smith
who set the saw mill on fire In fact, he
cleared him Of all the crimes and otfenses on
the calendar, and the result was that Smith
stopped his paper, withdrew his advertising,
ambushed and licked the editor, and was the
means of bankrupting the paper.

Blessings unnumbered on his honored head,

Its greatest boon he gave the human race,
And yet no mortal ever saw his face

Nor yet the name his parents gave him heard.
Blessings on him, say I, and you'll agree,
In blessing him, feel quite sure, with me.
He was our greatest benefactor; sure
